Franklin D. Roosevelt es una estación de las líneas 1 y 9 del metro de París, situada en el VIII Distrito de la capital. La estación se encuentra en los alrededores de la Glorieta de los Campos Elíseos (Rond Point des Champs Elysées). En 2004 superaba los 12 millones de viajeros anuales.1
Inicialmente existían dos estaciones distintas : Marbeuf, la estación de la línea 1 inaugurada en 1900 y Rond Point des Champs Elysées, la estación de la línea 9, puesta en marcha en 1923. Esto explica porque dos de los accesos de la estación requieren pasar por los andenes de la línea 1 para llegar a la línea 9.
El 6 de octubre de 1942 se puso en servicio un pasillo de enlace entre ambas estaciones, de forma que el nombre de ambas se cambió por Marbeuf - Rond Point des Champs-Élysées.
Al acabar la Segunda Guerra Mundial la estación pasó a llamarse Franklin D. Roosevelt debido a que la cercana avenida Victor-Emmanuel III había sido renombrada como avenida Franklin D. Roosevelt. Se sustituía así el nombre de un jefe de Estado de un país enemigo durante el conflicto, Italia, por el de un jefe de Estado de un país aliado de Francia como había sido Estados Unidos.
Se compone de dos andenes laterales de 90 metros de longitud, situados bajo la avenida de los Campos Elíseos a la altura del cruce con la calle Marbeuf, y de dos vías.
Durante mucho tiempo, más de 60 años, la estación lució uno de los diseños más característicos de la red basándose en un estilo que estuvo en voga en la década de los 50 y de los 60. La idea de base consistía en revestir las estaciones con diversos materiales para alejarse así del sobrio diseño clásico. En Franklin D. Roosevelt el estilo fue llevado aún más allá usando una técnica de manipulación del vidrio llamada gemmail dando lugar a auténticas vidrieras modernas. Tonos verdes y anaranjados, bancos empotrados y señalización en relieve eran otras de las características de la estación.
En 2010, y dentro del plano de renovación del metro parisino puesto en marcha por la RATP en los años 2000, el revestimiento ha sido suprimido. Se prevé que sea sustituido por el funcional pero más anodino azulejo blanco biselado. La reforma ha supuesto también la instalación de puertas de andén como sucede en todas las estaciones de la línea 1.

Se compone de dos andenes laterales de 75 metros de longitud, situados bajo la Avenida Montaigne a la salida de la Glorieta de los Campos Elíseos, y de dos vías.
Fue la primera estación de la red, en 1952, en ser renovada según el estilo carrossage. En él se empleaba diversos materiales para revestir los clásicos azulejos blancos del metro parisino.
Durante mucho tiempo su publicidad se limitó a curiosas vitrinas publicitarias, donde la publicidad no aparecía en paneles diseñados a tal efecto sino que se usaban pequeñas vitrinas donde se mostraba el producto que se pretendía publicitar indicando donde podía ser adquirido.
El amarillo, presente en los muchos asientos de tipo Motte y en los marcos de las vitrinas, es el tono predominante en la estación.
Como en la estación de la línea 1, la señalización aparece en relieve usando en este caso un color dorado.
L'inauguration de la station de métro Franklin D. Roosevelt a eu lieu le 19 juillet 1900. La fréquentation annuelle de cette station est de 11 571 562 voyageurs.

Franklin D. Roosevelt Metro station, a tribute to the former US President
Franklin D. Roosevelt Metro station boasts a contemporary decor that pays homage to its namesake, the revered US President who commanded Allied troops during World War II. Following a complete renovation in 2011, the station’s aesthetic is very international, reflecting its proximity to the Rond-Point des Champs-Elysées, one of Paris’s most iconic tourist destinations, and serves as a tribute to the United States.
General view of the station
Modernity is a central theme, evident in the station’s metal ceiling lamps adorned with intricate perforations that illuminate the platforms. The black and yellow color scheme of the tiles adorning the walls and vaulted ceiling further accentuates the contemporary ambiance.
The seating arrangements, designed to complement the modern aesthetic, offer a choice between two styles. Dark grey metal bucket-style seats exude contemporary sophistication, while standard-shaped yellow seats add a vibrant pop of color to the space.
Lastly, adding a dynamic touch, five touch-screen displays along the platforms accommodate temporary advertising campaigns, infusing the station with a sense of versatility and innovation.

Madeleine Albright, the first woman to serve as the U.S. secretary of state, died Wednesday, her family said in a statement.
She was 84.
Albright died of cancer, her family said, adding that she was "surrounded by family and friends" at the time.
"We have lost a loving mother, grandmother, sister, aunt and friend," the statement said, as well as a "tireless champion of democracy and human rights."
President Joe Biden remembered Albright as “a force for goodness, grace, and decency—and for freedom.” She “defied convention and broke barriers again and again,” Biden said in a statement.
He ordered flags to be flown at half-mast in her honor until March 27.
Then-President Bill Clinton named Albright the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations shortly after he was inaugurated in 1993, and nominated her as the secretary of state three years later. She was confirmed in 1997 by a vote of 99-0. At the time, she was the highest-ranking woman in the history of the U.S. government.

Albright served in the post for four years, actively promoting the expansion of NATO and military intervention in Kosovo.
On Wednesday, Clinton remembered Albright as "an extraordinary human being."
"Because she knew firsthand that America's policy decisions had the power to make a difference in people's lives around the world, she saw her jobs as both an obligation and an opportunity. And she made the most of them in advancing peace, security and shared prosperity," the former president said, adding he last spoke to Albright two weeks ago.
On this day in history, construction commenced on the Pentagon in Arlington County, Virginia to house the expanding U.S. War Department. It was completed in 1943. According to Mental Floss:
The first site chosen for the building was Arlington Farms, which was pentagon-shaped. But planners figured out that the building would block the view of Washington from nearby Arlington National Cemetery. So another site was chosen (where Hoover Field used to be). By this time, planning was so far advanced that the shape couldn’t be changed. Also, President Roosevelt liked the design—an important factor in keeping the original layout. ‘I like it because nothing like it has ever been done that way before,’ Roosevelt said of the design.”
The War Department Office building, better known as the Pentagon, Arlington, Va., shown under construction, Jan.17, 1942.
Today, the Pentagon is the headquarters of the United States Department of Defense. As a symbol of the U.S. military, “The Pentagon” is often used metonymically to refer to the U.S. Department of Defense. (Metonymy is a figure of speech in which a thing or concept is referred to by the name of something closely associated with that thing or concept.)
The Pentagon is one of the world’s largest office buildings, with about 6,500,000 sq ft, of which 3,700,000 sq ft are used as offices. Approximately 23,000 military and civilian employees and about 3,000 non-defense support personnel work in the Pentagon. It has five sides, five floors above ground, two basement levels, and five ring corridors per floor with a total of 17.5 mi of corridors. Each of its five sides is 921 feet long, which means a lap around the outside of the building is almost a mile. It also includes a five-acre central plaza, shaped like a pentagon and informally known as “ground zero,” a nickname originating during the Cold War.

Sixty years later to the day from the groundbreaking for the Pentagon, 184 airplane passengers, civilians and military personnel perished when terrorists crashed American Airlines Flight 77 into the building’s west side. Today, there are exactly 184 benches outside the Pentagon’s southwest side to commemorate those who died in the attack.
